Project Description: SAE Aero

• The SAE Aero Design competition provides Engineering students

with real life design problems.

• There are three different competitions within SAE Aero.

○ Advanced, Regular, and Micro

• Each design has different evaluations: Design, Presentation, and MP
• The Micro design consists of a small mobile plane that can

○ Carry the highest payload fraction possible ○ Pursue the lowest empty weight possible

• Faculty Advisor: Dr. John Tester

Literature Review

• Design, performance evaluation and optimization of a UAV [1]

This source evaluated aerodynamic characteristics and efficiency of the airfoil section, the wing, and the full configuration of a small uav. Provides many useful equations to be used when designing our system.

• Fox and McDonald's Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, 8th ed [2]

A study of the laws of fluid mechanics, more precisely, boundary conditions and air foils. Will be useful when comparing prototypes to our final product.

• Design and assembly of an experimental fixed wing remote controlled glider

plane [3]

This source developed an airframe and interfaced it with radio controlled remote, then embedded an on-board micro controller on the glider airframe.
